“I really hope local people will help, spend just two minutes completing the form and play a part in bringing visitors to the Borders and boosting our economy.”

Julian Cram, member of the Group, and owner of Borders Cycles added: “The Borders benefits from brilliant, scenic cycle routes and a really enthusiastic and knowledgeable cycling fraternity. We are keen to take this opportunity to shout about what our region has to offer and I’ll be encouraging all of my customers to take part in the survey and help us to attract more recreational cycling visitors here.”

The survey is available through the Recreational Cycling Group website www.cyclescottishborders.com and the Cycle Scottish Borders Facebook page.
